One of the most important documents she didn't mention is your gf will need to get a CENOMAR to ensure she isn't married as well. The Legal Capacity to Marry document for an American to marry you get from the U.S. Embassy. The fee is $50 USD or whatever the current pesos to USD rate is. At times, the U.S. Embassy will have quarterly outreaches to places like Cebu City, Angeles City and the Subic Bay area (SBMA). My wife and I got married in Olongapo City after attending an outreach to get the Legal Capacity to Marry (I am not sure of the actual name of the form). Also, one misconception foreigners have is that they think once they are married, they can get a visa and hop on the plane to the good old USA. NOPE......Doesn't work that way. Guys, guys, guys, make sure you get a CENOMAR. In my case, we went to the Olongapo City Hall, they gave us a package to complete (very easy) to follow. Once you submit the package, you will be issued a Marriage License on the 10th day. We will be celebrating our 10th Anniversity on February 14th, 2024.
Hi Sir, I'm always watching expats blogger experience in the Philippines 🇵🇭. I'm so proud of the Philippines, especially when you talked about the beautiful places and tradition/culture of our country. Thanks for a wonderful video. I'm looking forward to more. Enjoy your stay. 😊
I know that is screwed up money trap. They ask if you get her a ring. They ask if you visit with her family very many things that is really none of their business but they have a big nose they claim it is about the safety of the woman but it is about the money for the Philippine government.
And here's what the minister said to me at start of my 2006 wedding at Sitio Lucia Resort, Bulacan Philippines.... "Sir, before we begin may I remind you that this is not the United States, and here in the Philippines Sir, there is no divorce. Do I make myself clear before we begin?" Got it Sir ha Could write a book on this subject Patience Grasshopper Love the Philippines! From Oregon USA
A retired USA school teacher in Medellin, Colombia introduced me to two svelte, fit, vetted girlfriends in 2021 in Medellin, Colombia. Ages 40 & 33. I’m age 80, occasionally date one or the other to share joy, happiness and love on adventures in Colombia. I swim every day in some of the 10 pools at the Estadio Olympica Complex and do Zumba on Sunday mornings. My Airbnb cost $12 USD per night at 6 minute walk to the Olympica Complex. I haven’t yet found dental prophy cleaning as good as Green Apple (Ayala & Lapu Lapu). Medellín is a 3 hour flight from Miami.
@@eddieBoxer good luck Eddie. I wanted same thing. There are a few success storys.....but mostly crash and burn. Great girl good heart.....bar girls are like a nice rental car. Fun to have but you have to turn it in....and next day you will see someone else driving it
If you are divorced you need to get your divorce decree apostilled by the Secretary of State where the divorce took place. If you’ve been single your whole life, well sorry, that I don’t know.
Chad, the U.S. has a lot of influence over the Philippines and Filipinos, and the people love American culture more than any other cultures outside of their own.
Yeah, because PH was a US colony and they were brainwashed into thinking that the warmonger US is the best country in the world (not to mention chasing the US citizens for their money, not for their 'love').
Hi. I just want to ask so during the probationary period of 13A Visa, so they have to stay in the Philippines for the whole 1 year during the probationary? What if we want to go on a trip outside the Philippines, would that affect the 13A Visa? Thank you. Very informative video.
Hi Chad. Very useful information. So the 13A Visa needs to be renewed each 5 years? How much does the visa cost? Just a one-time fee for the 5 years? Thanks!
Hey there sorry for the delay, going to answer this soon I'm actually meeting with her today doing another interview to answer a bunch of these questions
@@ChadFosterExplores I wasn’t sure if you remembered me. But happy if you do. Yes, I’m working on my plan to move to the PHs from here in Kochi, Japan each night! I got delayed a few months because I had to focus on other priorities for a while. Then there was a long New Year holiday period here that ended this week. I’m in the process of meeting with realtors to get my house on the market to sell. Actually, I’ve started looking for land ideally to rent initially with the intention of purchasing in the future in Negros Oriental in Bacong, Dauin or farther south, perhaps in the mountains. If you hear of anyone selling, please let me know. I’m also researching to build a simple, minimalist native bamboo house. Got lots of details to work out. I’m hoping to make the move by this summer if all goes well.
@@ShikokuFoodForest oh yes of course I remember you from previous comments I appreciate you following the channel , the video I recorded today we talked about foreigners investing here and the limitations with buying land versus a condo etc. Heidi knows thisstuff quite well, you could always reach out to her for a free consultation… Otherwise Stay tuned for the video coming soon! Good luck with selling your house and working on your plan to come here in the summer!
In the UK you need to be legally married for 2 year's + b4 you can apply for divorce and prove the Marriage has completely broken down and has no hope of saving said Marriage
That’s my late husband does before we get Married last 2018! He has to Make sure that he had all of those documents already then apply marriage license from city were I reside
Maybe Heidi can inform the government of the Philippines exactly how this marriage approval stuff is supposed to work--they seemed to be very confused about it. Watch the video from Gio in the Philippines and Old Dog Paul for all the issues that came up causing delay after delay for getting married in the Philippines & getting all the documentation.
The government doesn’t want us here; hence, we have no rights. I propose that one day a week we spend on nothing, then 2 days…7 days .. onto 30 days and start the process over and until we get their attention. This includes Walking Street and such places😊
The government needs more documents from expats because some of you are still married in your respective countries. LOL Do you think you can just visit a country, find a woman to marry, and claim that you’re single with no proof?
One of the main reasons for divorce in the US is money related. At what point do you disclose and discuss personal finances with a Filipina? Obviously, it should be discussed after developing some level of trust - but what if the level of offset is overwelming? During a prenup?
That's actually a good question. Cuz for a foreigner he has to be cautious discussing $$ with any Filipina. I'm heading to the Philippines and when I meet women there I want to know they're interested in me and not just my $$. Also to avoid scammers. So I imagine that u discuss finances with her when u feel u can trust her and you're considering marriage. Probably differ per relationship. And I think it's a good idea to then discuss a prenuptial before u go any further. To me, a prenuptial protects me so I know I'm not just being targeted for $, and if the Filipina I'm with intends to keep her vow then it should be fine.
What if you don't have a birth certificate? What if your country of birth is different from your country of nationality? What if you have multiple nationalities?
If you're a philppa watch has been married previously in the Philippines Now she's in Australia She's filling out a notice of intended to marrie ??? We're it ask if she's been married before what should she put as she's still legally married in the Philippines even though she hasn't been with the man for 15 years
No divorce, good luck getting an annulment. Any property you buy belongs to her. Unless you buy a condo. If you break up, spousal support is mandatory. Until your marriage is annulled. If you break up. And you fall in love and shack up. She can have both of you arrested l. Good luck
She mentioned it's legal for the foreigner to get a divorce from their Filipina from within their home country. Does this mean that both the foreigner and the Filipina had to be married/ and or live in the foreigner's home country? Or can a foreigner obtain a divorce from their Filipina even though they were married in the Phillipines, and still live in the Phillipines?
i love how she is so articulate in her second language. This is why any American should know their place while in the Philippines. Especially if you can't complete a sentence in Tagalog. Much admiration for her skillset and beauty.
I have one question and one question only . Is all of paperwork I have bring from America does it have to be apostled ? and how long does the apostle last?
Wait so if I’m divorced in the US but technically still married in Mexico to the same person I’m divorced with, they can see that in the Philippines? Ugh I don’t have time to go to México and do all that first!😩😩😩 I just thought I needed to prove my divorce in my home country. I have so many regrets!😣😣
“As long as you have the documentations from your country“. I don’t understand where you get the document proving you’re not married. in USA, or at the consulate in Philippines?
Hey Chad, I have a few questions after watching this video. So my Filipina girlfriend and I live in the US with our son. She is a dual citizen. She has been divorced from her previous American husband here in the US for around 10 years now but is still married to him in the Philippines. Am I understanding that she can bring her US divorce papers to the Philippines to get her divorce processed there without him having to be there? Also, Can a US marriage license be used for the 13a and the Balikbayan Privilege or do those both require a Philippine marriage license or one or the other? We plan on moving there by 2026 Thank you
I thought there was a thing now that you do no need to go to the embassy to get a Legal Capacity to Marry document, but you can make an affidavit with a local court in your area to sign off on this. Am I wrong? Isn't it called an Affidavit In Lieu of a Certificate of Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage?
So I have a question and I want to know once somebody gets a license to get married they have to be married by someone like you said a mayor or a preacher or a judge or whoever that is is that true if you just get the paper you're not married do you still have to be married by someone right
Do I need a legal capacity to marry paper from the United States to take with me to the Philippines or do I get that in the Philippines from the consulate in Cebu ?
Step 1. See a psychiatrist. Seriously. It's a small investment to get an opinion on your mental health. There is no rational reason to get married for the partner who's bringing assets to the deal. The psychiatrist hopefully will look into if you're trying to buy love. That's regardless of whether your Filipina loves you or not. Even if your Filipina completely loves you and will stay with you forever if your brain thinks you need to buy her love it's going to cause problems down the road.
So this permanant 13A visa that you jave to renew every 5 years doesn't sound permanant. I have also heard the wife can basicly cancel it at any time. Is that real? And if you are able to visit other countries does that mean the Filipina can leave too? Hear how it can be very difficult to get permission for the woman to leave the Philippines. Merry Christmas. God Bless.
She will not be able to visit the USA until her husband files for a Spousal Visa. As with everything, there is a long process period. As you so eloquently stated, "Merry Christmas. God bless."
It’s kind of funny I have the requirements for marriage from city health in Cebu city and the certificate of eligibility to marrie . is issued by the foreigners, diplomatic official in the Philippines like at the consulate in Cebu You can’t get one of those in the United States. They don’t keep statistics of that.
Sorry to hear you got married in the PH. You should have listened to the stories of the foreigners who have been scammed by Filipinas and their relatives. There is no divorce law there. So, if you get married and the marriage doesn't work, you're stuck. Better to look for a non-scamming Filipina and just live together.
I have the paper from the Sabu city health office and it says you have to use foreigners, diplomatic official in the Philippines embassy or the consulate probably
What if i don't have a birth certificate? Can i use my US passport? I've used that in the US in place of birth certificates. How long does the process of getting married take. Because as foreigners we don't have a lot of time when coming to the Philippines
Hi, if you were married before your Divorce documents, you also need to acquire a Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage notarized by the US Embassy in the Philippines and a CENOMAR (Certificate of No Marriage) from the Philippine Statistics Authority 😊
Would a Single Status Affidavit or a A Certificate of Non-Impediment work? Such as, No Record of Marriage Certificate of Freedom to Marry Single Status Affidavit Certificate of No Record - Marriage Affidavit of Single Status Affidavit of Marriageability Certificate of No Public Record
@@Imnotfunnyyouarego ahead and get married to a Filipina much younger than yourself and you will find out first hand. This video is discussing marrying a Filipina followed by how to divorce this woman shortly afterwards. That tells you everything you need to know. That’s why. 🤷♂️
CFO will f up all your plans. I speak from experience The last thing before she is allowed to leave country even if she has visa. And the thing no one tells you about
A lot of Filipino couples have lived as husband and wife without a government slave contract for centuries. And who cares about a 13a visa...it protects you against absolutely nothing!!! If anything, simply have a nice ceremony with video and photos, but skip the BS legal documents crap. That piece of paper has never prevented the physical separation of couples. There are millions upon millions of separated yet legally married Filipina mothers there suffering in loneliness.
would a divorce decree,be proof your single ? what and where do i get a legal capacity to contract marriage ?? I dont want to make a trip back home just for a document,,
This is what I want to know--where in my country (America) am I able to get a "legal capacity to marry" document? I've never heard of such a thing here in America.
@@napoleonmdusa8877 you don't get it in the USA. You have to get it at the U.S. Embassy Manila. Periodically, the U.S. Embassy will have outreaches to places like Cebu City, Angeles City and Olongapo City at SBMA. I went through this in 2014. The fee (at least in 2014) was $50 USD or pesos to USD rate at the time. The Consular Officer will notarize it on the spot. Also, a must. Your gf has to have a CENOMAR to prove she isn't already married. Very important to do. Guys, believe it or not, your sweet little honey-co will married at times when all along the many months and or years your "faithful" gf been telling you she isn't married, so therefore you have been sending money. I have seen it. Fortunately never experienced it.
@@napoleonmdusa8877it is something you will need to get from the US embassy in Manila or Cebu. You can schedule an appointment to visit their office. We were fortunate that before we got married, the statistics authority accepted a locally notarized affidavit of legal capacity to marry (Covid times).Now you need to have it notarized at the Consulate office.
Hi, please refer to this link www.philippineconsulatela.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Judicial-Recognition-of-Divorce-in-the-Philipines.pdf for easy understanding It’s through a Supreme Court ruling in 2018
You people only speak about Americans or Canadians, Russians Ect. What about S.Africans or Namibians Ect. Or is it about the Euro or the dollar. Is our money too weak!?
@@Thephilipcartmelexperience Bullshit! It's stupid to get married to a Filipina in the Philippines unless she and her family can financially sustain themselves.
Facts when marrying a Filipina: Husband, boyfriend, FWB, you will NEVER be as loved or respected or as important as her parents and sibs. No matter what you are told, you are the breadwinner to them and you are on the hook to financially take care of her family, period. You are not her first man. Even if her private area feels tight during s&x, she's had others and it may not stop after you are married. There's even a great chance that she has been pregnant before and won't tell you or outright deny it. Yes, even Provence Filipina's do this. Filipina's are very social and they nearly always say yes to other Filipinos, male or female. She will listen to a Filipino's words over yours, even if you are married to her. She will pretend to abide by your saying no to them and do whatever they ask behind your back! Men, you're better off playing the field than you are getting married. Women are the same all over the world.
Thanks for watching!

She said “Certificate on No Marriage”. What do you mean?

That's one thing missing in my life. Having a judge deciding my life.
Yup, definitely something I do not have on my bucket list.
I know that is screwed up money trap. They ask if you get her a ring. They ask if you visit with her family very many things that is really none of their business but they have a big nose they claim it is about the safety of the woman but it is about the money for the Philippine government.

Great info! Obviously her accent she lived in the US or raised by at least 1 US parent.

“As long as you have the documentations from your country“. I don’t understand where you get the document proving you’re not married. in USA, or at the consulate in Philippines?
Hey Chad,
I have a few questions after watching this video. So my Filipina girlfriend and I live in the US with our son. She is a dual citizen. She has been divorced from her previous American husband here in the US for around 10 years now but is still married to him in the Philippines. Am I understanding that she can bring her US divorce papers to the Philippines to get her divorce processed there without him having to be there?
Also,
Can a US marriage license be used for the 13a and the Balikbayan Privilege or do those both require a Philippine marriage license or one or the other?
We plan on moving there by 2026
Thank you
I dont understand the legal compasoty part to prove that im single part where on earth would i get that? Ive never been married before
Interesting, not mentioned new divorce law in Philippines?
Is she from the US?
Sounds like a native English speaker!

That's true
What about dual citizenship
If you get divorced in Phillipines is it 50/50 split even if you have money in the USA?

Do I need a legal capacity to marry paper from the United States to take with me to the Philippines or do I get that in the Philippines from the consulate in Cebu ?
It's sad that some filipinas don't know anything about love Love isn't selfish.
Step 1. See a psychiatrist. Seriously. It's a small investment to get an opinion on your mental health. There is no rational reason to get married for the partner who's bringing assets to the deal.

She will not be able to visit the USA until her husband files for a Spousal Visa. As with everything, there is a long process period. As you so eloquently stated, "Merry Christmas. God bless."
She can visit anywhere in Asia she would only need a passport
No no no please. Don’t
But does she still get rewarded with cash and prizes when you or the wife from the Philippines divorces in the USA?
Hi, that really depends on your divorce settlement and pre-nup if you have any
Why not try coming to Iloilo
Wonder why the 13A is probationary for one year?
It’s kind of funny I have the requirements for marriage from city health in Cebu city and the certificate of eligibility to marrie . is issued by the foreigners, diplomatic official in the Philippines like at the consulate in Cebu You can’t get one of those in the United States. They don’t keep statistics of that.
Sorry to hear you got married in the PH. You should have listened to the stories of the foreigners who have been scammed by Filipinas and their relatives. There is no divorce law there. So, if you get married and the marriage doesn't work, you're stuck. Better to look for a non-scamming Filipina and just live together.
So if I divorce a filipina in US even though we were married and lived in the Philippines does she get half my money and properties?
The USA Govt does not provide a legal capacity to marry. So I heard you have to see a filipino lawyer to draw up a document
Yeah, I heard you can use a Filipino lawyer because of the pandemic but I heard this information a year ago so take it with a grain of salt
I have the paper from the Sabu city health office and it says you have to use foreigners, diplomatic official in the Philippines embassy or the consulate probably
What if i don't have a birth certificate? Can i use my US passport? I've used that in the US in place of birth certificates. How long does the process of getting married take. Because as foreigners we don't have a lot of time when coming to the Philippines
You can get your Legal Capacity to Marry at the Embassy? Just wondering if you need to get in US or can get in Philippines?
In the Philippines, United States does not keep the statistics and will not verify for you
prove of being single??? how?
Hi, if you were married before your Divorce documents, you also need to acquire a Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage notarized by the US Embassy in the Philippines and a CENOMAR (Certificate of No Marriage) from the Philippine Statistics Authority 😊
Thank you
Where is she located
Would a Single Status Affidavit or a A Certificate of Non-Impediment work? Such as,
No Record of Marriage
Certificate of Freedom to Marry
Single Status Affidavit
Certificate of No Record - Marriage
Affidavit of Single Status
Affidavit of Marriageability
Certificate of No Public Record
You need to know this before getting married in the Philippines.
Don’t
why?
@@Imnotfunnyyouarego ahead and get married to a Filipina much younger than yourself and you will find out first hand.
This video is discussing marrying a Filipina followed by how to divorce this woman shortly afterwards. That tells you everything you need to know. That’s why. 🤷♂️
CFO will f up all your plans. I speak from experience The last thing before she is allowed to leave country even if she has visa. And the thing no one tells you about
A lot of Filipino couples have lived as husband and wife without a government slave contract for centuries. And who cares about a 13a visa...it protects you against absolutely nothing!!! If anything, simply have a nice ceremony with video and photos, but skip the BS legal documents crap. That piece of paper has never prevented the physical separation of couples. There are millions upon millions of separated yet legally married Filipina mothers there suffering in loneliness.
would a divorce decree,be proof your single ? what and where do i get a legal capacity to contract marriage ?? I dont want to make a trip back home just for a document,,
This is what I want to know--where in my country (America) am I able to get a "legal capacity to marry" document? I've never heard of such a thing here in America.
@@napoleonmdusa8877 you don't get it in the USA. You have to get it at the U.S. Embassy Manila. Periodically, the U.S. Embassy will have outreaches to places like Cebu City, Angeles City and Olongapo City at SBMA. I went through this in 2014. The fee (at least in 2014) was $50 USD or pesos to USD rate at the time. The Consular Officer will notarize it on the spot. Also, a must. Your gf has to have a CENOMAR to prove she isn't already married. Very important to do. Guys, believe it or not, your sweet little honey-co will married at times when all along the many months and or years your "faithful" gf been telling you she isn't married, so therefore you have been sending money. I have seen it. Fortunately never experienced it.
@@napoleonmdusa8877it is something you will need to get from the US embassy in Manila or Cebu. You can schedule an appointment to visit their office.
We were fortunate that before we got married, the statistics authority accepted a locally notarized affidavit of legal capacity to marry (Covid times).Now you need to have it notarized at the Consulate office.
They don’t marry for true love. Beware
You married a Family Clan........
Interesting. I would never invest there. If we said foreigners shouldn't be able to buy land here, I would be called a racist
1st thing to know......Don't get married in the Philippines...........2nd thing to know........Don't get married in the US
That’s not true about divorce, only the one of their country will be divorced, not the Filipina
Hi, please refer to this link www.philippineconsulatela.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Judicial-Recognition-of-Divorce-in-the-Philipines.pdf for easy understanding
It’s through a Supreme Court ruling in 2018
DO NOT GET MARRIED!!!
Especially in the Philippines!!!
Never let a judge decide your future based on what a couple slimeball lawyers say...
Why?lol
@@JunBermz
Let us know when
you find out!!
This only applies

In addition,
it's stupid to

in the Philippines
unless she and

sustain themselves.
@@VENEMPASTOR Have you been married to a Filipina?
There is no advantage to get married here..... stay single
You people only speak about Americans or Canadians, Russians Ect. What about S.Africans or Namibians Ect. Or is it about the Euro or the dollar. Is our money too weak!?
Curtisake7431, you are the monster, I haven't been able to get a straight answer until I read your remark here. Ms Heidi is the Cats Meow. ❤❤❤
Bullshit..my exhusband, married a Phillippino 20 years ago while married to me ....he was a waste of fucking fresh sir
This is a scam. Disguising a lie by legally getting married. That woman is perpetuating and encouraging this type of criminal activity legally.
Marry a Philippino? Silly talk ..why buy the cow when you get the milk for free....
You are the reason westerners get a bad name, not to mention STDs
Bad attitude. Stay home.

Facts when marrying a Filipina: Husband, boyfriend, FWB, you will NEVER be as loved or respected or as important as her parents and sibs. No matter what you are told, you are the breadwinner to them and you are on the hook to financially take care of her family, period. You are not her first man. Even if her private area feels tight during s&x, she's had others and it may not stop after you are married. There's even a great chance that she has been pregnant before and won't tell you or outright deny it. Yes, even Provence Filipina's do this. Filipina's are very social and they nearly always say yes to other Filipinos, male or female. She will listen to a Filipino's words over yours, even if you are married to her. She will pretend to abide by your saying no to them and do whatever they ask behind your back! Men, you're better off playing the field than you are getting married. Women are the same all over the world.
